I’m smitten by the British-English convention of using the suffix “-side” to denote locations. I first noticed this construction when I was doing dissertation research on shipbuilding, and read about the world-famous shipyards of Tyneside in northern England, but there are lots of other examples, such as Cheapside in London Now that the Olympics are over, I think the world is ready for a broader use of the convention. Forthwith, a few options for my little slice of the eastern edge of Northfield:
- Woodleyside
- Cornside
- Soybeanside
- Manureside
- Mcmansionside
- Retentionpondside
- Turbineside
- Windyside
Mallside?
If we were on the west side of town, we might legitimately be called Mallside; those hooligans are about a mile closer (as the crow flies) to the MoA, I think.
pubside?
